CONSOB Accounted for 179 of 188 Entries in Oct. 29 Snapshot

An Oct. 29 European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) register snapshot listed 188 entries, including 179 attributed to Italy’s securities regulator, a count of submissions rather than all unauthorized activity. That regulator is the Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa (CONSOB). CONSOB accounted for 95.2% of the entries. The other nine were attributed to Belgium’s authority, with six, and authorities in the Czech Republic, the Netherlands and Slovakia, with one each. The register of non-compliant entities providing crypto-asset services is separate from ESMA’s list of authorized providers.
